Does not happen on Mac OS 10.4.11 ppc g4 (and did not happen on 10/5/8 I think)

Comment 2 Michael Herger 2010-03-12 13:22:59 UTC

This will not change as long as we want to keep backwards compatibility with 10.4/5 and 32-bit, without distributing two differen versions. What you see is the 64-bit 10.6 Preference Pane telling you it needs to restart in 32-bit mode. While it's cumbersome, there's not much we can do.
